Characterization of rice black-streaked dwarf virus- and rice stripe virus-derived siRNAs in singly and doubly infected insect vector Laodelphax striatellus. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Replication of RNA viruses in insect cells triggers an antiviral defense that is mediated by RNA interference (RNAi) which generates viral-derived small interfering RNAs (siRNAs).

Lords of the flies: dipteran migrants are diverse, abundant and ecologically important

Biological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 4, Page 1635-1659, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Insect migrants are hugely abundant, with recent studies identifying the megadiverse order Diptera as the major component of many migratory assemblages. Despite this, their migratory behaviour has been widely overlooked in favour of more ‘charismatic’ migrant insects such as butterflies, dragonflies, and moths.

Cyanophage Infections in a Sponge Intracellular Cyanobacterial Symbiont

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 27, Issue 7, July 2025.
Intracellular cyanobacterial symbionts of sponges are shown to be susceptible to cyanophages, challenging assumptions about their isolation from viral exposure. The study reveals novel phage–host interactions and suggests conserved infection strategies across symbionts of marine and terrestrial animals.

Massively parallel pyrosequencing-based transcriptome analyses of small brown planthopper (Laodelphax striatellus), a vector insect transmitting rice stripe virus (RSV)

BMC Genomics, 2010
Background The small brown planthopper (Laodelphax striatellus) is an important agricultural pest that not only damages rice plants by sap-sucking, but also acts as a vector that transmits rice stripe virus (RSV), which can cause even more serious yield ...

Loss‐of‐Function of Two PD‐Associated Proteins Confers Resistance to Rice Stripe Virus

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 26, Issue 7, July 2025.
Rice importin α4 and flotillin 1, as proteins associated with plasmodesmata (PD), facilitate the enlargement of PD apertures by diminishing callose deposition at these structures, thereby promoting the intercellular translocation of RSV. ABSTRACT Plant viruses usually exploit plasmodesmata (PDs) to achieve cellular infection in host plants. Although PD‐

A fijivirus capsid protein hijacks autophagy degrading an ω‐3 fatty acid desaturase to suppress jasmonate‐mediated antiviral defence

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 7, Page 2891-2907, July 2025.
Summary Plant viruses often suppress jasmonic acid (JA)‐mediated defences through disturbing JA signalling or biosynthesis pathways to benefit their own infection. Few studies have examined how the precursors of JA biosynthesis are regulated by viral infection.

Knockdown of timeless Disrupts the Circadian Behavioral Rhythms in Laodelphax striatellus (Hemiptera: Delphacidae)

Environmental Entomology, 2018
Most living organisms developed the innate clock system to anticipate daily environmental changes and to enhance their chances of survival. timeless (tim) is a canonical clock gene. It has been extensively studied in Drosophila melanogaster (Diptera: Drosophilidae) as a key component of the endogenous circadian clock, but its role is largely unknown in

An Insect Salivary Sheath Protein Triggers Plant Resistance to Insects and Pathogens as a Conserved HAMP

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 21, June 5, 2025.
The salivary sheath protein myosin from SBPH is critical for the formation of the salivary sheath and feeding. However, myosin functions as a HAMP and triggered plant BAK1‐mediated PTI responses, which include the activation of calcium signaling pathways, MAPK phosphorylation, ROS bursts, and cell death, thereby triggering JA pathway.

A plant cytorhabdovirus modulates locomotor activity of insect vectors to enhance virus transmission

Nature Communications, 2023
Transmission of many plant viruses relies on phloem-feeding insect vectors. However, how plant viruses directly modulate insect behavior is largely unknown.
